CSD just PMed me this idea. Basically, if you go to the galleries and view a HATPC level, right under the cavecode is a new button called "Upload to HATPC". What this does is that it sends the cavecode of that level straight to neopet's upload page, which opens in a new tab. When the upload page opens, you'll find that the level has just been uploaded directly to whichever account you were logged in as. And of course, if the cave has any errors (like a space in the tile) then the upload page will stop you as usual.
Well, now there's no need to copy the code or even open the upload page. It's really convenient. Just make sure you never log out of your neopets account. User Comments (39) | Onarole |

'Quirvy' said: No. I always check if the entire box is yellow. I might not post in the boards, but I still read them.
To me, all it does is take away a slot that could be used to show an actual topic.
If you're gonna have it there, it should open up to a page that shows you all of the posts that are unread.
Just a suggestion.

you already have 11 topics up there. I think it's useful to have a reminder that there are more topics to be read. especially for other members who don't check the forum index at all. | | Isa |

yeah but it's still a waste of time to make a page that'll show you all unread topics rather than just using the forum index. | | Isa |

Why is that? I don't think it'd take that long time to construct. | | Livio |

but you don't know how the thing is coded. it was confusing making that More Topics button work. The way it works is that it saves the last time you view the topic, and then it saves the last time that topic has been posted on. And then it compares them together and it tells you if it's unread or not. so in order to make such a page, I'd have to make it go through every single topic ever made and then add it to the list if it's unread. It'd be a huge mess... | | Livio |

'Livio' said: and about the More Topics button, I've noticed that a lot of people aren't posting much in the topics that get pushed off, so hopefully this will fix that to some extent
Maybe you should put a list down there like search results, or just automated emails sent when someone posts. Just like the old forums. | | Livio |

like a "watch topic" feature? maybe. I'm not sure I know how to make a script send an email, but I bet it's easy. I don't think we need such a thing, though | | Cedric |

What this says to me, is that you think that our users are too stupid to realize that there might be more new posts when all of the topics in the recent comments box are yellow.
Adding a page with all of the unread topics would still be as necessary as this new feature. I mean, it's common sense to check the forum if everything is yellow in. Adding that page would make me more supportive of the more topics slot.

It's still annoying to have it yellow when I'm going through the older posts. It's like it almost fakes me out into thinking it's an actual topic, and one day I might accidentally click on it, and if that ever happens, I will send you multiple PM complaints about it
